you could go to a junkyard and get one, but it's prolly alot better looking if you just get it done professionally..it's not too expensive. Actually, someone I work with had a crack in his and he called a company and changed the windshield in my work parking lot, now thats service!!!!!!!!!!

yeah in the time it takes to find one and put it in yourself you could probably have it done professionally for less money....plus you wont have to worry about the install because most windsheild companies warranty their products....

so buy one from a yard then pay the company to do the install. you will save $$ because the windshield is not cheap as a new part but a used one at a yard is hella cheap. i know i've done it. good luck finding one.

My windshield has a crack all the way across it cause my friend dropped the corner of my hood into it when I was taking off my CF one, and the heat/cold made it worse with road bumps. Luckily I have full glass.

I have been driving around for over a year with a busted windshield, guess I should start looking into fixing it too.

id just save the cahs and buy a new one, your not going to be able to find a decent one in a junkyard, it will be all pitted and worn. after all the car is in the junkyard for a reason,obviously wasnt driven easy

it cost me 160 for a brand new windshield installed. plus my moldings were kinda sticking out and they did a pretty good job of fixing them when putting the new window in. not sure if that is high, but i was suprised and happy to get it fixed because without it, i wouldnt pass inspection.
